The end of the 458 journey

"Lester Bangs (lester. bangs) once said: Rock is dead. If Bangs is still alive, he will be moved to tears when he sees the resurgence of rock in 1993.

As the most interesting critic in the history of rock and roll, Bunce has always been an outlier and pioneer. He is not an ordinary music critic in the strict sense. He has a unique vision and a keen sense of smell. When contemporary music critics are still praising Elvis Presley, The Beatles, and the Rolling Stones, he He has set his sights on those little-known garage rock and underground heavy metals.

Bangs’s aesthetic standard is that rock should develop in a more crude, aggressive, direct, and offensive direction, rather than die in improvisation and complicated techniques that take tens of minutes to move. In his short life, Bangs has been fulfilling his promises, bands, puppet bands (the.s), velvet underground bands (the.velvet.uh), collision bands... these will become rock music in the future. The immortal bands and singers in history have been highly recommended by Bunce

Of course, in Bangce’s career, his greatest achievement is undoubtedly making punk a member of the rock family that cannot be ignored.'Punk can create a kind of vague music and an irregular beauty..." In his comments, this new type of music has been put on the stage of history. In the face of the overwhelming doubts at the time, Bangs replied,'To show rock' or punk rock, the only thing you have to do is : No. Rock is an attitude. If you have found the attitude you hold, then don’t care what others say, because “excitement” is what you want to express in music, and it must be done in all music.

'sex'. The pistol band (sex.) even stepped onto the altar under the recommendation of Bangsi. Bangs is a person who likes to live in an ideal state. When the classic punk is gradually declining and commercialized, he wrote in a manuscript, "Yes" I feel very painful because I have fallen into too many times. After contradictions and hesitation, for me, all this has reached the point of inevitable. All that punk left me now was rant without purpose, at least that's what I thought, and I didn't want to believe it was true. Even so, Bangs never gave up his fascination with punk and persisted until the last moment of his life.

On April 30, 1982, the 33-year-old legendary music critic was found dead in an apartment. The official death was due to an overdose of sedatives.

Bunce has always been a critic of my "fascination". His experience, his contribution, and his temperament are "close" to the limit of freedom in life. He hates the system, does not like the existing rules and values, and is pure Outstanding, elegant and rude, crazy and sensible, in the entire history of rock and roll is absolutely'fan' and free and easy.

Therefore, Bangs said: Rock is dead, but he still can't get rid of the "fascination" in his heart.

I’m very curious about what Bangs would say when he saw the unbelievable miracle created by the Nirvana band. Maybe he could see the brilliance of this band before the band caught people’s attention, and then use a lot of gorgeous words to say. Praise this band, eager to awaken people's love for rock again; of course, it is more likely that Bangs dismissed the achievements of Nirvana, because the innovation of Nirvana in rock technology is precisely Bangsi. It's annoying, so he might angrily accuse the band of being flashy and stifling the hope of a rock and roll revival in its infancy.

But I was even more curious about what Bangs would say when he saw the rise of glory to the death, because in this band I could see Bangsi's stubbornness and unyielding back then.

Glory to Death is trying to break the'trend' of rock and roll created by Nirvana. At the same time, it is also trying to leave its own trajectory in 1993 when rock and roll was resurrected. Listen to the soul-shocking melody of this band shouting on the street. It is the fusion of garage rock and metal rock. It is the combination of rock and hip-hop, pop, punk, and electronics. It is an art form close to civilian life. It is Bangsi’s most admired rock and roll, authentic.

The glorious to death music blends the trivial and delicate emotions of life into the music, venting it out heartily, and dancing the most beautiful posture in the heart of every listener.

In the past ten months in 1993, rock and roll seemed to have recovered the supreme glory of the decade. The ‘fine’ color albums were dizzying one after another. Most importantly, the strength of alternative rock began to have a violent impact on the current rock model, even surpassing the turbulent'turbulence' when the Nirvana band emerged two years ago. Goatskin bands, radio commanders, fuzzy fields... this one A band full of personal styles broke people's fixed thinking about rock and roll, and once again reproduced the pomp of the golden age of rock and roll in 1977 when the masterpieces blew out.

In this group of bands, glory to death also occupies a place.

After the National Day, Glory to the death pack and embarked on a journey. The intensive performance of nearly two hundred performances in more than three months brought them to the international metropolis on the east coast and brought them a piece of EMI Records. After the record contract, the band entered the studio and started intensive preparations for their first album.

Just when everyone thought that the band would officially release an album for publicity, Glory to Death unexpectedly embarked on a journey again, just like Bangs, even with more ‘tempts’. "Confusion" and no matter how much "confusion", I will never forget my deep heart for rock and roll.

After Halloween, Glory to the death regained its strength, left the Big Apple, and set his first stop in'Boston, still a truck, five team members and a bunch of musical instruments, without an agent and work. Surrounded by people; it is still a casual street performance, expecting that passing pedestrians will stop for them, without the gorgeous stage and the cheers of the audience; it is still a road tour of dusty, conscientious, and "desirable", without sponsors Intervention, no meticulously arranged publicity schedule... Glory to Death will peel off the sugar coating that is wrapped in the music shell, biting the nut at the core, once again returning to rock itself and embarking on a new journey.

It’s just that, this time, the team of loyal fans who followed Glory to Death is gradually growing. This is a group of fans who are willing to follow the band to wander around. One of them is from Columbia University. The eight-year-old Joshua Akranston said, “I hesitated” because I know how hard and long the journey is, but I’m glad I made the right decision because I know it will be The most important journey in my life is not only to chase glory to death, nor to chase my passion for rock and roll, but also to chase my goal in life.

The footprints of glory to death caused a sensation in cities large and small. The onlookers of more than 500 spectators on the streets of Chicago forced the city hall to dispatch patrols to maintain order; and a small town called Blue Knifes was due to the arrival of the band. It attracted tourists from nearby cities to join in; not to mention that when the band arrived in Seattle, the 300-yard parade expressed the welcome of this sister city...

The band returned from the east coast all the way back to the west coast. Although it only took fifteen days to arrive in 14 cities this time, it mobilized thousands of spectators to watch the exciting performance of the band on the streets without complicated arrangements. Without the'flower'-like guitar, the glory to death music retains the simple and lively melody, shocking lyrics and infectious performances. This band shows everyone a new look of a rock band.

If Bangs were still there, he might have watched the glory to death and exclaimed: Rock is resurrected! Then he used his typewriter to give the band full of praise and tell people to focus his attention on the band, because This is a band worthy of everyone's attention.

It is hard to imagine that amidst the ‘trend’ led by Nirvana, there is a band that dared to break the shackles and shackles and create a rock music style that can even be called a completely different style. This is what Lesterbons advocates

On October 31st, River Phoenix left us forever. This is a news that is enough to shock everyone. Phoenix and Bunce have one thing in common, that is, their proud talents are annihilated by this colorful circle, and then gradually lost themselves, but Phoenix is ​​evading the overwhelming attention. Let him have nowhere to escape; while Bangs was evading the commercialization process and destroying punk bit by bit, which made him frustrated. In the end, they all passed away in the'medicine'.

Suddenly, the glorious body was shining like Phoenix and Bunce. We can only pray. This time, don’t let this ray of light disappear too fast, and pray that we can be in this ray of light. Go further under the guidance.

Tomorrow, the road journey from Glory to Death for nearly five months will be drawn in Los Angeles. What kind of surprises will the band bring us this time? What kind of attitude will the band's album appear in front of us? Can 1993 be the year of rock and roll recovery in the annals of history? The answer seems to be right in front of us~www.readwn.com~ My heart beats hard, and the sun still rises quietly. "

This is from the front page of the "Los Angeles Times" published on November 16. This article written by the music critic David Marches of "Rotation" magazine has undoubtedly become the focus of attention, because "Rotation" is a bimonthly magazine. , The publishing cycle is relatively long, so this time David put his music review on the "Los Angeles Times", and the "Los Angeles Times" actually assigned an important position on the front page to a band that has not yet debuted. It's even more amazing-although not a headline.

After Glory To Death finished preparations for the album, he set off on his way home without any hesitation. The journey on this road has accelerated since the past, but the main thing is that the stay in the city has been shortened, wherever he went along the way. All aroused enthusiastic reports from the local media. It can be said that glory to death brought this road tour boom from New York to the West Coast.

In the rising sun of Los Angeles, the journey of glory to death across the United States is finally coming to its end, and this time, this city known as full of countless miracles will be led by glory to death. What kind of surprises does it produce next?
